In a weekend post the infamous ?laying pipe? story we talked about Taylor Swift?s visit to Kansas City last week, and how her security people were seen in Travis?s neighborhood. Page Six had photos of the exterior of his (very pretty) house too. I mentioned that I was surprised that Travis doesn?t live in a gated community, and many commenters mentioned that many ?local athletes? in various cities tend to live in regular neighborhoods, not gated communities, and that most locals look out for their biggest celebrities and protect their privacy. Sure, but now Travis Kelce is dating one of the most famous women in the world. There were world leaders pleading with her to bring her tour to their countries. So? Travis needed to ?level up? in a hurry. Looks like he? just bought a house in a gated community.
Travis Kelce has snapped up a $6 million mansion in Kansas City in a desperate bid for more privacy surrounding his newfound romance with Taylor Swift, Page Six can confirm. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, and the 12-time Grammy winner, 33, have been enjoying frequent rendezvouses in recent weeks, and were photographed holding hands in NYC last week.
On Tuesday, Kelce signed on the dotted line to close the deal, making him the new owner of a plush pad that boasts a waterfall, swimming pool and mini golf course, TMZ first reported. The luxe home is nestled in a gated community, offering unparalleled privacy for Kelce and any guests that stay over in the future.
Kelce began his quest of searching for a private estate after it became clear to him how accessible his previous home was, according to the outlet.
Kelce already owned a custom-designed, seven-bedroom mansion based in Kansas City?s ritzy Briarcliff West neighborhood, which he purchased for $995,000 in 2019, and an Orlando condo which he grabbed for $355,000 in the same year.
Kelce, who has an annual salary of $14 million, signed a lucrative four-deal deal with the team worth $57 million in 2020. The hefty sum does not include paid partnerships, which earn him millions alone.

As soon as I saw photos of Taylor Swift?s security in SUVs around Kelce?s neighborhood, I figured this would happen. Still, I?m a little bit surprised it happened so fast Taylor just spent the night last week and he?s already buying a new home with added security! It?s not like Taylor walked into his house and was like ?this is a dump.? It feels like he just wants to ensure that Taylor has nothing to worry about when she visits him in Kansas City. I really respect Travis here he?s doing everything he can to show Taylor that he?s serious and locked-in, and planning for the future. Hope his new house has a bedroom which can be converted into a closet for Travis?s wardrobe.

The thing about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce is that they can be two things at once: a real relationship in its early days AND an incredibly convenient duel-marketing event at the highest level. There are layers to the cross-promotional aspect of Traylor, but I also believe that Travis and Taylor are genuinely happening and they?re into each other. Still, it?s amazing to watch Taylor?s PR go into overdrive this week, following a weekend full of Traylor photo-ops. Travis came to New York this past weekend, and they went to SNL, they partied with the SNL cast, and they went out to dinner on Sunday too. People?s ?sources? had all kinds of details about Traylor?s Saturday outing:
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were ?so happy? on their PDA-filled date night at the Saturday Night Live afterparty, a source tells PEOPLE. The pop superstar, 33, and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, enjoyed their time together at the afterparty at Catch Steak following the season 49 premiere of SNL on Saturday in New York City.
?Taylor and Travis were there all night and they were so smiley, they were so happy,? the source says. ?They were so talkative. They were really fun. They talked to every single person in the room that talked to them. They were super cool. Super nice, super happy,? the insider adds, noting that Swift and Kelce stayed at the party ?until after 4 a.m.?
The source also says the pair was definitely not shy with each other. At one point in the night, Kelce ?takes both her hands and puts them on his shoulder, so theyre face to face, and then he takes both his hands and grabs her waist. Theyre leaning in, theyre kissing each other,? the insider says. ?Theyre whispering. Theyre talking, going back and forth about what to order, like, ?Should we get a steak? Should we get espresso martinis?? And then they lean in and they?re kissing again. Theyre touching each other the whole time.?
Although Swift and Kelce ?mingled separately,? the pro athlete ?kept going over to her and checking in on her every little while, like, ?Are you good?? ? the source says. According to the source, Kelce was ?going over and touching her, putting his hand on her lower back or putting his hands on her waist and then they would do a little kiss and then they would go back to talking to whoever they were talking to. He kept checking in with her, but gave her space to talk to other people in the room, both male and female, and he talked to a ton of people in the room too, the insider adds.
?They were always connected throughout the night, the source notes of the pair. ?They were super comfortable with each other. They were very cuddly; they werent awkward. She was really comfortable with him, and he was a total gentleman.?
[From People]
Please, this came directly from Taylor and I LOVE IT. She?s telling us that she appreciates Travis?s whole deal, that she loves that he checks in with her while they?re at a party, that he was being demonstrative in public. This is Taylor?s love language someone she can be with publicly, someone she can talk about and get pap?d with. ?They were very cuddly; they werent awkward.? LOL. Meanwhile, People?s ?sources? also dished on how Travis thinks this is the real deal.
Dating the biggest superstar in the world may come with a unique set of challenges, but a source tells PEOPLE that Travis Kelce is ready for it as his romance with Taylor Swift continues.
Taylors unlike anyone Travis has dated before, the source shares as the 34-year-old NFL star hit the town with the Bejeweled singer, 33, in New York City over the weekend. It was very unexpected for his friends, but hes so into her and very, very happy. Some people thought he was just joking around about the bracelet and having a crush on her earlier this summer, but he was serious about it, referring to Kelces attempt to give Swift his phone number on a friendship bracelet when he attended her Eras tour at Arrowhead Stadium.
According to the insider, Swift and Kelce are having a great time getting to know one another and have introduced some of their friends to each other in recent weeks. The source adds, Everyones getting along and seeing how much fun they have together. They make a very cute couple.
[From People]
You know what I think? I think Taylor forgot what it?s like to date an American guy. She got so used to those British guys with all of their hangups and neuroses. To be fair, Travis seems like one of the better versions of an ?American guy.? He?s smart, he?s self-assured, he?s chatty and cool. God, I hope they can figure out a way to make it last.

Before the snake fam even got the chance to process Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift?s surprise Saturday night outing, Traylor was out again on Sunday night. They hit up the Waverly Inn after Travis attended his brother?s game (the Eagles, Jason Kelce?s team, lost). Taylor?s outfit here isn?t my favorite thing ever, but it?s also got a ?90s vibe which I sort of appreciate.
There?s a lot of gossip reporting about Traylor?s two nights in New York. Reportedly, they were making out in the middle of the SNL afterparty for hours. They also looked ?in love? and like they weren?t even paying attention to anyone else (except Ice Spice).
Taylor and Travis looked very comfortable and happy together. They were kissing openly and weren?t shy with their PDA. When Taylor first arrived, she spent time with Ice Spice and Ice Spice?s friends, the source says.
Another source adds that the pair appeared to be the real deal, and that they didnt hold back when it came to being affectionate.
They were holding hands throughout the night, whispering into each others ear, and they even exchanged some kisses, says the source, who added it wasnt like they were making out, just sweet moments like hed kiss her on her head.
The source added that Kelce was also protective of Swift. At one point, he actually told her security guard that he could step aside, like hed take it from here, the source says.
[From ET]
I?ve already seen some videos where it looks like Travis is having a hard time negotiating Taylor?s security, especially when they?re getting in and out of cars. I think it?s great that he?s protective of her and he thinks he?s got it covered, but Taylor needs to sit down with him and tell him that he needs to let her security do their jobs and theres a reason why she has such a big security detail. Still, it?s also possible that Travis knows what makes a good photo, and he didn?t want Taylor?s security guys in the frame!
Meanwhile, The Eras Tour film shattered the box office this weekend, raking in $95-$97 million in North America. The Traylor outings also work as promotion!

Oh, here we go. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were out in New York last night they made surprise appearances on SNL (which Ill cover tomorrow) and then they went to the SNL afterparty at Catch Steak, where they held hands, etc. The Swifties are calling this Traylors hard launch. Like, its been a hard launch for weeks! But I appreciate that we now have photos of them together. He seemed very protective of her! Apparently, they plan to attend the Eagles game tonight (to see Traviss brother play).
Meanwhile, in the first weekend in October, Travis Kelce was in New York ahead of the Chiefs playing the Jets. He came to New York a few days ahead of the game, and he was seen going into Taylor Swift?s apartment building that Saturday night (the night before his game) and leaving the next morning. We can also sort of assume that when Taylor went to Kansas City to see her first Chiefs game, she spent some time with Travis in his surroundings, although we don?t know if she went to his house that weekend. I mean, maybe she stayed at a hotel? Who knows though. Well, Tay was back in Kansas City on Thursday and she went to the Chiefs game. She decided not to stay at a hotel, I guess. The Kansas City paparazzi claim that Taylor spent the night with Travis at his mansion.
Taylor Swift appears to have crashed at Travis Kelce?s home in Kansas City, Mo., Thursday night after cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs star in his game against the Denver Broncos earlier in the evening.
Photos obtained by the Daily Mail show the pop superstar?s security vehicle parked outside of the NFL star?s $1 million property early Friday morning.
According to the outlet, the white SUV is the same car that was spotted picking up Swift, 33, from the airport.
Reps did not immediately return Page Six?s request for comment.
Swift arrived in Kansas City early Thursday to make her way to Arrowhead Stadium for Thursday Night Football.
[From Page Six]
If you go to that Page Six link, you can see Travis?s $1 million Kansas City home, which is honestly lovely. It has great curb appeal and I bet the interior is really nice too. That home would probably be $8-10 million in LA. One of the photo agencies had photos of Taylor?s security in Travis?s neighborhood, which brings up something weird I guess he doesn?t live in a gated community? I mean, yes, it?s Kansas City, but it?s amazing that people really don?t bother him or come up to his house.
Anyway, it?s sort of like ?two 30-somethings spend the night together, news at seven.? I get that. But Taylor?s parasocial relationship with her fans means that I?m sure there are Swifty Puriteens crying about how Taylor would never have sex with a jock. To those Puriteens, let me say this: I bet it was really good too. That man looks like he knows how to lay some pipe. Taylor wouldn?t be hard-launching this thing if the pipe wasn?t good as hell.

This feels like the first time in years that I?ve seen Taylor Swift in bike shorts, a slouchy t-shirt, sneakers and a baseball cap. Throughout this year, she struts around New York in heels, minis and other cute ensembles. She?s the queen of street style and one of the nicest things about Taylor is that she gets ?dressed up? to leave her house. It does look like Taylor dressed with purpose though her t-shirt is from Free People, and it?s the Shania Twain ?Any Man of Mine? tee. Her sneakers are New Balance and she carried a Louis Vuitton purse.
These are pics of Taylor coming and going from the Electric Lady studio in NYC. The woman with her is Keleigh Sperry, aka Miles Teller?s wife. Miles and Taylor worked together a few years ago when he was cast in the music video for Taylor?s ?I Bet You Think About Me.? Taylor has been in and out of the Electric Lady all year, recording new music and re-recording 1989 (Taylor?s Version). She uses it as a social club too, inviting her friends to hang out at the studio and listen to her record. But where?s Travis Kelce? Well, even if Travis isn?t around constantly, he and Taylor are apparently quite smitten with each other:
Despite being one of the most famous women in the world, Taylor Swift ?was low-key and low-maintenance? as she watched Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce help his team defeat the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday, October 1, an insider exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly. The source adds that Swift ?was sweet to everyone and had an amazing time? as she cheered alongside famous pals including Blake Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner and Sabrina Carpenter.
It was her second time watching Kelce play, but just one of Swift?s many upbeat outings in recent weeks. On a break from the first leg of her record-shattering Eras Tour ? which is set to make more than $1 billion ? the 33-year-old Grammy winner is clearly enjoying herself as she embarks on a new romance with the football star, 33, and spends quality time with her girl squad. ?Taylor?s doing all the things she hasn?t had time for lately,? says a second source, ?like going out with her friends and staying out late.?
Swift kept a noticeably lower profile during her six-year relationship with British actor Joe Alwyn, from whom she split in April. ?Taylor has decided she?s not going to hide anymore,? a third source tells Us. ?She?s going to be her authentic self and enjoy life.?
Despite talk that Swift and Kelce?s hookup is a PR stunt, multiple sources tell Us the pop star?s feelings for the Ohio native are legit. They?ve seen each other several times ? Kelce was reportedly spotted leaving Swift?s NYC apartment on Sunday morning ? and ?talk every day,? says the third source. ?Taylor?s really enjoying getting to know Travis,? the insider adds. ?They?re taking it day by day, but she has high hopes. She likes that he?s a normal, nice guy. He?s down-to-earth and isn?t affected by fame. She also thinks he?s hot.?
A fourth source says the feelings are mutual: ?Travis is completely smitten.?
[From Us Weekly]
?Taylor has decided she?s not going to hide anymore. She?s going to be her authentic self and enjoy life.? That?s sort of my favorite part about Taylor, post-Joe Alwyn. She was so fking quiet during that relationship and while I appreciated that, and it felt like she was maturing, it?s been fun to see her as a chaotic single girl, out enjoying her life this year. Was the Matt Healy situation pretty bad? Yes, but it was also hilarious, because she was so out of practice as she tried to grapple with her feelings for a racist famewhore. This Travis Kelce thing must be a welcome relief.

Taylor Swift is re-releasing 1989, her pop-music album which, for my money, is probably her best and her most iconic. 1989 (Taylor?s Version) comes out on October 27. What?s sort of amazing is that she not only recreated the album, she?s actively recreating the vibe miniskirts, strutting around New York and girl squads. The update to the vibe is that Taylor has a new boyfriend, football player Travis Kelce.
Well, Taylor spent the whole weekend getting all kinds of headlines. Saturday night, Taylor was out with her New Girl Squad: Sophie Turner, Blake Lively and? Brittany Mahomes, wife of Patrick Mahomes, the quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. They went out to dinner at Emilios Ballato in SoHo. Later that night, Travis snuck into Taylor?s apartment and he apparently spent the night ahead of his big game against the Jets.
Then last night, Taylor arrived at the Metlife Stadium (in New Jersey) with the Nu Squad: Sophie, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Robyn Lively, Hugh Jackman, Sabrina Carpenter and director Shawn Levy. They were in the VIP area with Travis?s mom Donna Kelce and Brittany Mahomes. This time, Taylor didn?t wear any Chiefs merch, which probably caused some NFL merch guy to weep. The Chiefs won and so did the television producers who kept cutting away to Taylor in the VIP area. After the game, Taylor then hit up Zero Bond with some of the squad.

From my very unofficial survey of Swifties, it seems like there is not a consensus about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?s portmanteau. Are they Traylor? Tayvis? TayTray? Swelce? You guys need to figure it out y?all insisted on Hiddleswift when, honestly, CB came up with ?Tiddles? and we held the Tiddles line here on this blog. I?m personally leaning more towards Traylor, but I?m sure the Snake Fam is clever enough to come up with something better than ?Taylor and that football guy.? Anyway, TMZ has been running all kinds of Traylor exclusives this week, including a photo taken inside of the Kansas City restaurant they went to following last Sunday?s game:

Are Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce the real deal? If past is prologue, then the answer is ?lol, no, this will last two months at most.? I?d be happy to be wrong here Travis seems like he likes the attention just as much as Taylor, and it?s been so long since she?s dated an American guy. I hope she gives him a real shot. Her most recent relationship was with Matt Healy, and it felt like she was fighting with her team about how she didn?t want to break it off with him. What is her team telling her this time? I don?t know. ?Sources? told People Mag that Taylor is ?very focused on work right now and hanging out with her girlfriends. Travis invited her to the game, and of course she said yes. She just thought it was a fantastic way to spend Sunday.? Taylor was seen leaving the Chiefs game in a convertible with Travis, then she went and partied with Travis and his fam after the game.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce created quite the buzz on Sunday night when they decided to cap off a thrilling game at Arrowhead Stadium with a surprise late-night dinner. The star-studded pairs evening resulted in the shutdown of a popular restaurant as fans and diners gathered for an unexpected encounter with the two celebrities.
Taylor and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end were seen leaving the stadium together, sending fans into a frenzy on social media. The unexpected rendezvous had Swifties and sports enthusiasts alike speculating about the nature of their relationship.
The real surprise, however, awaited fans at Prime Social Rooftop, a trendy restaurant in Kansas City. Patrons who were already dining there on Sunday night found themselves in the midst of an extraordinary encounter.
An eyewitness tells ET, Travis bought out the restaurant for his family and team. Taylor arrived, wearing a denim dress, and was seen snacking, having some cocktails and dancing alongside Travis. The two were very affectionate with one another but kept things fun and lighthearted. Travis teammates also showed up to the after-party, as well as his mom and dad, Donna and Ed. The party lasted until 2 a.m.
A source tells ET, Travis has never shied away from his desire to give dating with Taylor a try, which he even said during a press conference a few months ago after seeing Swift in concert. Travis and Taylor are taking things slowly, and not rushing into anything serious. Both are very career-focused, so the focus is on that for now, but thats not going to stop them from enjoying life when its the right moment.
One diner tells ET, So we went to Prime Social Rooftop for my friends 22nd birthday. They informed us before we left that they had a hard close at 8 p.m. and of course, seeing that Taylor was at the Chiefs game, we were already joking that she was going to be there.
As the clock neared 8 p.m., the restaurant staff approached diners with to-go boxes, informing them that they had to vacate the premises. To compensate for the early closure, the staff graciously offered free drinks at their sister restaurant a few floors down. The restaurant patrons couldnt help but wonder if this unusual situation was for the benefit of Taylor and Travis. When asked about the unexpected turn of events, the restaurant staff maintained a shroud of secrecy, smiling and replying that they cant confirm or deny the reason for the abrupt closure. However, as conversations with the staff continued, it became evident that they were thrilled about the special guests in attendance and even promised to convey greetings to Taylor.
[From ET]
The last part of ET?s exclusive comes from a TikTok of one of the bar patrons who was asked to leave as Taylor and Travis were arriving. Just FYI. I mean, I believe it. I believe that Travis decided to shoot his shot and he?s still reeling because it worked. This has an air of Travis muttering to himself ?don?t fk this up, don?t fk this up.? Dude, it?s not even about you! Taylor is gonna Taylor, either she?ll dip in a month or she?ll stick with you for five years. No in-between.

On Tuesday night, Taylor Swift and Sophie Turner went out together in New York. They never had beef, although I never considered them especially close. Sophie seemed to think Taylor?s history with Joe Jonas was funny more than anything else, and Sophie pursued a sort of celebrity-friendship/alliance with Taylor. Given that Joe Jonas spent a full week trying to smear Sophie for not being a perfect tradwife, it felt like Sophie and Tay?s little dinner was a perfect fk you to Joe from both of them. But what did Sophie and Taylor actually do on their big night out? They went to Via Carota, an Italian restaurant. Then they checked out Temple Bar and did ?caviar bumps.?
Taylor Swift and Sophie Turner hit New York City celebrity haunt Temple Bar together on Tuesday night, after grabbing dinner at downtown hotspot Via Carota.
A source told us that at Temple Bar, Swift and Turner enjoyed ?martinis with caviar bumps, which they seemed to love.?
?Caviar bumps? ? for those who missed the foodie trend ? consist of fancy caviar that?s luxuriously licked off the back of one?s hand. They reportedly go for $20-a-pop at Temple Bar. The New York Times called it, ?a decadent and naughty way to consume the pricey delicacy at certain restaurants, fashionable bars, art festivals and other showy gatherings.?
Said a spy of Swift and Turner together: ?They were having a fun time,? and added that they ordered the bar?s ?mini martinis.?
Though we?re also told they left with security, and ?didn?t stay long.?
The duo also happened to arrive at Temple Bar ?just as the Internet went out,? and, ?the manager was losing his mind,? an insider told Page Six. The Wi-Fi snafu, however, didn?t put a damper on the evening.
[From Page Six]
Wow, mini martinis and caviar bumps. That honestly sounds like a fun girls? night out. What?s the difference between a martini and a mini martini? Just? smaller, less alcohol? I want to know what they ate at Via Carota as well! And I want to know how this whole night came about. Who contacted whom? Was this arranged through their teams? My theory is that Taylor called Sophie and was like ?girl, I?m not going to say ?I told you so?? and Sophie was like ?girl I know, you were right.?

For years now, the MTV VMAs and Movie Awards have been in the depths of hell like, no A-listers were showing up to those events, and it was just an endless parade of C-listers and reality stars. I figured this year?s VMAs would be the same, but MTV somehow got a bunch of big-name people to come out. Of course, I kind of think the only reason Taylor Swift went to the VMAs is because MTV guaranteed that Taylor would sweep, which is what happened she won NINE VMAs this year. For the red carpet, Taylor wore Versace? you guys, this dress is so bad. Like, WTF? Who picked this out for Taylor? And who styled her?
Here?s Olivia Rodrigo in a great Ludovic de Saint Sernin dress. So pretty.
Shakira picked up the MTV Video Vanguard Award, and she wore Versace on the carpet (and on stage). I love how sparkles and metallics are back this year!
Cardi B wore the ?Dilara Findikoglu hair clip dress,? a dress made out of hundreds of hair clips. She looked cool.
Selena Gomez wore this red Oscar de la Renta dress. Eh, kind of phoned it in?
